[ she's perhaps one of the few people who don't seem irritated to be outside of the dome. natasha thrives out here. maybe it's because she's spent so much time our here, or maybe it's just because the sanctum is still such a cage in her mind. either way, the suit might be doing well to hide it but natasha is practically smiling as she moves around out there.

it's a mission though, rescue and recovery not 'run around and enjoy the sights', and any relief natasha feels at seeing a real sky is short-lived. she serves a purpose here, and that purpose becomes very clear the moment she sees someone approaches by one of the infected. she takes off at a run, pulls the infected away by the back of the head, and before anyone can say otherwise she delivers a high-powered shock to the throat.

[ it's not to make any more cash so much as to scout for potential talent, but on the days where she isn't working, natalie rushman can be found offering shooting classes. on any given day a handful of people can be found in her classes, and if her heart breaks a little more every time a young girl comes rushing in full of propaganda and sparkling ideals, she's oh so careful not to let it show.

today's much like any other, and when a newcomer walks in she turns around with a dazzling smile, all red curls and bubbly personality. ]

Are you here for lessons? [ handing over a memo pad, she taps lightly on the screen. ] Just fill in these quick questions and we can get started.

[ ic inbox spam? hit me up. random encounters? lets do it. infected angst stories? love it. here's your wildcard option, if you don't want one of the two sets ups/have an idea you want to rock, lets party! ]
